CHOICE OF SCREEDS IN FORLÌ

THE CHOICE OF SUPPORT SCREED IN FORLÌ

1. Site inspection for screeds in Forlì
2. Check of consistency and any residual moisture.
3. Bonded screed, it must be verified that the substrate is clean and therefore free of releasing substances (e.g., dust, oily substances, etc.), mechanically resistant, without parts in the detachment phase, and it must also be verified that there are no rising damp phenomena.
4. Non-bonded screeds are created by interposing a separating layer called a horizontal vapour barrier between the screed and the substrate to isolate the system, placing a compressible material layer peripherally on the floor in the walls, and possibly the entire elevated structure.
5. This solution of screeds in Forlì serves to free the flooring from structural deformations such as settlements, contractions due to hygrometric shrinkage, and technical expansions.
6. Floating screeds, these also need to be isolated like the previous ones but rest on a layer of thermal or acoustic material completely separated from the walls by a compressible perimeter strip. In this case, it is advisable to size the thickness of the screed in relation to the compressibility and resistance to compression characteristics and permanent loads of the underlying layers to favour the correct distribution of loads.
7. Screeds for radiant heating and/or cooling systems are, in practice, floating screeds that usually rest on thermal insulation that incorporates heated and cooled elements (pipes). The minimum thickness of the screeds in Forlì above the pipes of the system must comply with what is indicated in the UNI EN 1264/4 standard. For radiant systems, it is essential that before laying the flooring, after the screed has cured, the system undergoes a first programmed and progressive heating cycle, according to a precise protocol, to verify the functionality of the system and to make the screed stable and ready for the flooring installation.
